History & Background (Dossier)

Once the dominant force in the region, the Domain was split by dissent and internal warfare in the early early 800s. It is suspected that Imperial interests were behind this upheaval, as the Imperium and its regional allies benefited greatly from the diminishment of the Domain’s strong pro-Zhodani government. The subsequent weakness of this flank of the Zhodani Consulate was a significant factor during both the Third Frontier War and Fourth Frontier War.

Regardless of the cause of the Domain’s disintegration, more than half of its member worlds either rebelled or formally seceded - many eventually unifying into the League Of Suns and the Descarothe Hegemony. Former member worlds Lelaek, Thenstor, Mirayn, Affleck and Nirvana remain independent to the present day. After unsuccessfully attempting to regain lost territories by force or diplomacy, the remnants of Alntzar have spent the last century or so declining into an isolationist and comparatively decadent state. Strict internal security measures remain in place, albeit mostly submerged under a massive bureaucracy. The military is large, but has not deployed in force outside Domain borders since 1021.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Domain's relationships with its neighbors remain poor at best. Substantial "technical assistance" is provided to the Descarothe Hegemony and Nirvana. However, major political and philosophical differences make any lasting accord between these states very unlikely.

The Zhodani Consulate still supports Alntzar, but this backing has waned since the end of the Fourth Frontier War. During the Fifth Frontier War, Alntzar was 'sympathetic' to the Outworld Coalition, but limited its activities to providing facilities for Coalition forces.
